Abstract

Humanitarianism, by its very nature, takes place in complex and challenging circumstances. The primary objective is to mitigate the violence and suffering that is engendered by crisis, disaster and conflict. Creating the humanitarian space for the delivery of aid relies upon adherence to the principles of humanity, impartiality, neutrality, and independence.1 In recent decades, however, the idea of humanitarianism has broadened to become more inclusive.
